CALLA LILLIES photo: calla lillies ... poetry.jpg
A FAMILY DIVDED

A chill swept threw the house and never le

Dad had let in the Angel of death

And she has nearly killed us all

Once she was my best friend

We were called soul sisters by all

I had noticed her flirty ways

But I trusted my husband with my life

The thirty eight years we were together

Was most of my life time and his

We had traveled the world

Raised a son, and paid our bills

When the death toil sounded

I knew it was true, and he admitted it

I didn't want him to leave

Tried hard to save what I could

But bad came after worse

And it was time for him to go

The hard part is we still love each other

But some things can't be mended

Evil comes in many shapes and disguises

Will I ever trust again?
